How do I maintain my new PEX repipe?
PEX is virtually maintenance-free because it does not corrode or develop scale like metal pipes. To keep the system in top shape, ensure that any exposed PEX is kept away from direct UV light and that your water heater is maintained at standard operating temperatures.
Why is professional PEX installation better than DIY?
Professional installation is critical because PEX requires specific tools and an understanding of "bend radius" to prevent kinks and restricted flow. A licensed plumber ensures all connections are secure and that the system is properly supported to avoid long-term wear or noise issues.
Is the repiping process messy?
PEX is significantly less invasive than other materials because its flexibility allows it to be "fished" through walls with minimal cutting. Our 3-step process ensures that any small access points are managed professionally and that your home is left clean.
How does a PEX repipe provide value?
A PEX repipe provides value by lowering your long-term repair costs and improving the energy efficiency of your hot water delivery. It is a highly attractive feature for modern homebuyers who value a quiet, durable, and freeze-resistant plumbing infrastructure.
What logistics are involved in a PEX transition?
The transition involves installing a central manifold, similar to a circuit breaker box but for water, and running individual lines to each fixture. Our team manages the logistics of this layout to ensure minimal disruption to your daily routine during the upgrade.
